I will guess male. Next time include another inch of the tail in the photo, the hemipene bulge is not viewable in the picture you provided.

Not to be the bearer of bad news-

But at approx that age, Petra was mad chunky at that age.Looked just like that...even had a chunky tai....full of fat and muscle.
And like 2 year like clockwork, she was full of eggs. (eww.)

I thought she was a girl..then the fat happened and i seconded guessed myself, and then...stoped eating and we wound up taking her to the vet and discovering the eggs
